ITN JOINS IN

A number of NUJ members at ITN are also supporting the campaign for a ballot on the policy. Their motion reads:As broadcasters and NUJ members we are dismayed at the passing of a motion at ADM calling for a boycott of Israeli goods. As members of organisations which take pride in providing impartial news coverage, we cannot associate ourselves with a move which involves taking sides in any conflict. We call on the union to hold a ballot of all members to see whether they support the view taken at ADM on an issue which could have a profound effect on the way all British journalists are viewed at home and abroad.Dan WrightJohn RayNick Scott PlummerDavid WeissbloomJon SnowMalcolm BoughenEd PerkinsBenjamin CohenLindsey HilsumJonathan RugmanFelicity SpectorRob WhiteMark PowerJulian RushLucy ManningJonathan MillerDavid StanleyTom ClarkeKen HayesJason MillsNick Paton WalshBen Monro-DaviesRachel DefriezChris Watkins
